[pytest-dev] [proposal] introducing attrs to the codebase

[Ronny Pfannschmidt]

*resend after mistake*
Hi Bruno,

i was thinking of doing it in the features branch,

as far as i can tell it can be applied to all classes of the
code/traceback, report and node details as well of a lot of mark related
inner details

having low cost classes should also ease de-tangling node mark handling and
keywords

we still should investigate how to use it and if we should vendor it
